Brokerage event for the Invitation for Commitments of European Innovation Partnership on Smart Cities and Communities

The European Innovation Partnership on Smart Cities and Communities (EIP-SCC) brings together cities, industry, innovative SMEs, research organisations and civil society actors to improve urban life through more sustainable integrated solutions across the ICT, energy and transport and mobility sectors.

The European Commission has launched an openInvitation for Commitments(tentative launch date in the week of 24/02/2014, tentative deadline 15/06/2014) that invites interested parties to step forward and support the objectives of the EIP by communicating and sharing their plans and initiatives for actions at the interface of energy, transport and information and communication technologies and infrastructures. These can exist already, or reflect ambitions for the future.

Interested parties met and presented their ideas and plans for action. This has allowed them to find like-minded partners and to engage in new opportunities.
